Winter GemCyclamen
Cyclamen persicum
Cyclamen are one of the most beautiful winter-flowering houseplants. Their distinctive swept-back petals in shades of pink, red, white, and purple emerge above beautifully marbled foliage from autumn through to spring. They prefer cool conditions — a cool windowsill is ideal — and reward careful watering with weeks of continuous bloom.

Care Guide
How to care for your Cyclamen
Quick Care Steps
Light
Place in bright indirect light — a cool north or east-facing windowsill is ideal.
Watering
Water from below by placing the pot in a saucer of water for 30 minutes, then drain.
Temperature
Keep cool — 10–18°C. Avoid radiators and warm rooms which shorten flowering.
Deadheading
Remove spent flowers and yellowing leaves by twisting and pulling the stem cleanly.
Common Issues & Fixes
Crown rot
Caused by watering from above. Always water from below.
Short flowering period
Too warm. Move to a cooler spot — cyclamen prefer cool conditions.
Yellow leaves
Overwatering or too much direct sun. Adjust accordingly.
